Well, I was hoping to see some exotic exec construct that would confuse pkg_delete, but no such luck. > > huff@> grep -E '@(unexec|exec).*Source' /var/db/pkg/*/+CONTENTS > /var/db/pkg/p5-Test-Harness-3.23/+CONTENTS:@unexec rmdir "%D/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2/TAP/Parser/Source" 2>/dev/null || true > /var/db/pkg/p5-Test-Harness-3.23/+CONTENTS:@unexec rmdir "%D/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2/TAP/Parser/SourceHandler" 2>/dev/null || true This looks a bit suspicious, the quotes shouldn't really be there and it actually installs something ending in "Source". However, it's probably best to rule out the obvious: if you have dir /var/db/pkg/Source/ does the +CONTENTS file in it look sane? When in doubt, post it. If you don't, any hits on: grep '^@pkgdep Source' /var/db/pkg/*/+CONTENTS -- Mel
